5/6 Cubs (Harden) @ Astros (Hampton) - 7:05 PM CT - CSN

[Fred Hornkohl]

.... and the Astros return the favor by wasting a double of their own !!

 

Thanx, Astros !!

[BCVM22]

Giving up hits on the 0-2 sucks.

[gflore34]

Anyone have the baa or number of hits Cub pitchers give up in 0-2 counts?

[Fred Hornkohl]

Don't look now, but Aaron Miles has actually earned his paycheck these last 4 games..........

Harden can't find the zone suddenly.

[TruffleShuffle]

i seem to remember seeing this last time he pitched.

[Sammys Boombox]

Starting with the Soto double play the Cubs have seemed to forget the concept of taking a pitch.

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 4-3 when their pitcher gets a hit.... 10-9 when he doesn't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[CubbieBum]

Don't know if anyone has said it already and I'm at work so I can't really look but ESPN currently has the boxscore as Cubs winning 4 to -1. Yeah thats right -1.

[Fred Hornkohl]

I'm not real fond of Hunter Pence, either !!

Yeah, Rich Harden is that good !!! :wink:

[BCVM22]

Ugh.

[Fred Hornkohl]

OK, Mike Hampton is on my list, too !!

[bcl412]

I'm pretty sure Hampton is a better hitter than pitcher.

[illiniguy]

I really hate the Astros.

[Sammys Boombox]

This thread is really dead.

[BCVM22]

Sweet Christmas, that chick was off the charts.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Milwaukee     10
Cincinnati     0  4

Pittsburgh     1  5
St. Louis      4

If only Santo were there to be enraged at the Cubs flailing against the junk ball pitcher. He really hates that. Actually, so do I.

Yep. Hampton keeps throwing breaking balls in the dirt and we keep flailing at it. It's really annoying.

Okay I had to logon one more time to post this. ESPN box score has us up 4-0 at the top of the 9th. However Harden has 3 innings pitched and Hapton 4. No one else is listed as having pitched.

That Harden guy is pretty efficient, no ?

[Fred Hornkohl]

CUBS are 13-9 when they draw 2 or more walks.... 1-3 when they don't

 

 

Go CUBS !!

[bcl412]

Let's try getting these guys home shall we.

[Fred Hornkohl]

Everybody has a hit tonight except Theriot & Soto.
